Hollyhock

Hollyhock

I'm no great lover of pink, and as the days draw in the Hollyhock becomes more pink!
Still, I thought that this shot of a bloom as it unfurled wasn't too bad. So as part of my ongoing program to be less "Pinkist", here it is!

I still won't be going out of my way for anything pink Yorkshire, but as it's a self seeded one it can stay for the time being!

Tetrarch - it's just something of nothing as a colour really.

In the right place fine. I'll put up another photo of one of my Phalaenopsis orchids that has bloomed all summer in a bit.

Meanie:

Incredible color! It's too bad you to care for pink flowers.

Some of our most beautiful flowering trees here have pink flowers...like Tabebuia.

Can't help my aversion! This does fade as it opens though to a very soft pastel pink though.
